Six Cycladic Objects: Movement, Representation and Identity in the Third Millennium BCE | MetSpeaks

Michael J. Boyd, Senior Research Affiliate, Science and Technology in Archaeology and Culture Research Center, The Cyprus Institute, and Research Affiliate, McDonald Institute for Archaeological Research, University of Cambridge. Join archaeologist and scholar Michael Boyd as he explores how the Cyclades, an island group in the Aegean Sea, formed the arena in which a fundamental transformation in human society took place in the mid-third millennium BCE—the effects of which can still be traced today. Through six Cycladic objects discover how the recent excavations on the island of Keros have transformed our understanding of the period. Gain insight into the fundamental role of Keros and the wider Cyclades at one of the most important turning points in human history: the inception of the world’s first information age. This lecture has been made possible by the Museum of Cycladic and Ancient Greek Art, Athens, Greece in fondest memory of its founder Dolly Goulandris.
